If you sent me your name/address to be in the ornament exchange, you should have received your Secret Sister's info today. If, for some reason you have NOT gotten an ornament buddy, please let me know! The response to this has been amazing...I had to try and remember how, or even if, I was even slightly organized! So, if you got an addy, great~ if not, let me know!!!

Hugs,
Chen♥

I got mine! I'm new to this and very excited about being involved.

I know there is plenty of time, but when should we consider sending, and should we reveal who we are with our ornaments??

Hugzzzzzzzzzzz ~ Sherri

Well, I am not a rule-setter by any means, but I would think ( the postal service being as it is!) to have our ornaments in the mail by the 1st of December at the latest...I also WILL put my screenname on the return address , so my Secret Sister knows who it is from! But that's just me! Do as you wish~ that's the fun of the whole thing!

Hugs,
Chen♥

Fair warning...may have to instruct hubby on my purchase as I am under house arrest per Doc orders still! This should really be interesting!! Of course I could start internet shopping....but that usually leads to "one for you....two for me" LOL!! Pammy

I am sooooo not a rules kinda of person! I think, if you go to your secret sisters personal page, it may give you a clue as to what kind of person they are. It might say they are thankful to God, it may say they couldn't have made it without their dog, or that when this is over they are moving to tahiti! I am more the "holiday neutral" ornament giver...a star, a pink ribbon, a heart, or sled, for example, are unlikely to go against someones religion or lack of thereof! :-)
But we are all sight unseen friends here~ none of us is likely to be offended or thin-skinned! Sheesh--we are in here because we are doing battle with the Beast AND we volunteered to be in the ornament exchange! How bad can it be??? LOL Relax and enjoy this nice connection with Kindred Spirits!!!

Hugs,

Thanks, Chen, for the idea, and for all the work that goes into this kind of actiivty. It will be fun to see what everyone comes up with in the way of ornaments, and I really hope that all who participate will share their thoughts after receiving their personal ornament. A great way to start the Holidays, and to make a connection with our Kindred Spirits. We appreciate you, Chen. Hugs.

Just an idea but we could start a discussion thread where we all post our favorite colors, collectibles, themes or whatever. You know like if we always decorate our tree in blue and white or if we love santas or whatever...and then we could just read what our secret sister posted.
